Seeking a Friend for Justin, an active and outgoing man in his 20s who lives in a group home in Lexington. Justin is on the Autism spectrum and has some anxiety, and is highly supported by his family and outpatient team. He enjoys collecting phones, playing all kinds of board games, and going on walks. Justin could also envision going bowling, ice skating, swimming, and playing basketball with his Friend! He is thrilled to have a meaningful 1:1 relationship with someone as he has been waiting to be matched for a long time.

Seeking a volunteer who could spend time with Justin once or twice a month for a year. Access to a car to pick up/drop off Justin for activities would also be preferable. Contact is currently virtual but will transition back to in-person meetings when safe and allowed. Our amazing Clinical Match Specialists will also support the relationship throughout your experience!

JEWISH AND NON-JEWISH VOLUNTEERS WELCOME.
